`
`
`Mr. McKinley is a founder, co-founder and principal of over a dozen

`Network, Inc. (CAN). CAN was established in 1989 with the mission
`of using highly coordinated, networked teams to quickly

`Through its worldwide network of experts, and unique database
`system, CAN is able to effectively assess the potential success of
`new technologies and implement the marketing plans necessary to

`
`Prior to his involvement with CAN, Mr. McKinley held various

`Company, where he worked for fourteen years. In his position as a
`product manager at Dow, Mr. McKinley successfully developed and

`Hoyle took the company from a rating of 422 out of 435 agents
`across the United States in sales and operations performance, and
`finished the same year rated 7 out of 435. Total gross sales were
`doubled.
`
`Mr. Hoyle began his own trucking company, which attained a rank
`of 14 out of 400 agents in overall sales performance. In 1991, Mr.
`Hoyle sold his company and began working as executive vice
`president for one of the largest trucking companies (Gross Sales
`$75 million) in the U.S.., based in Denver, CO. Under Mr. Hoyle's
`leadership, the company's standards were raised to number one in
`loss prevention and number two in safety throughout the United
`Van Line Agency Group- a group that consisted of over 600 agents
`throughout the world. Mr. Hoyle assisted the company in a
`$2,500,000 acquisition of another agent in the Van Line industry.
`Afterwards, Mr. Hoyle accepted the general manager position in the
`acquired company. The new company was losing $1,000,000
`annually, but in Mr. Hoyle's first 10 months, the Company was
`returned to profitability, ending the year with a $1,250,000 net
`profit.
`
`Following this project, David began consulting with various
`companies, improving profitability and becoming familiar with a
`variety of business computer applications. With the explosion and
`popularity of the Internet, Mr. Hoyle, in 1995, became convinced
`that the future of business would be intertwined with the Internet's
`future. With Mr. Hoyle's previous experience in various computer
`languages and applications, he began working with several Internet
`companies and programmers, learning the skills necessary to take
`advantage of this new technology. The combination of Mr. Hoyle's
`previous business experience, combined with knowledge of this
`new technology, has given him the ability to see the shortcomings,
`and hence opportunities, of the Internet. Mr. Hoyle believes that
`these opportunities may be transformed into profitable ventures
`with quick and timely action.
`
`Most recently, Mr. Hoyle contracted his expertise to a Fortune 500
`company based in New Orleans, LA. His position placed him in the
`Advanced Technologies Multimedia Laboratory. This lab,
`sometimes called the "Skunk Works", researched various kinds of
`new cutting edge technology, which could then be utilized by the
`company to maximize profitability.
